Check the four master fuses under the hood, next to the battery. (Probably the one closest to the headlight.) Then check the IG COIL fuse. (going off memory 1st Gen FSM is in garage)
If not only the starter isn't trying to work and the motor won't try to start, I would be looking at supply voltage. It sounds like you are not picking up the Fuel pump relay, Master relay, Starter solenoid.
Do your dash lights come on?
